stupid cupid

i admit that i am one of the many scrooge of valentine's day. i do not usualy celebrate valentine's day because almost everybody is doing it. i do not like the hype valentine's day brings. but this year it is a bit different.

the only person that devoids man from the simple joys in life is himself.

i went on to surprise daisy in velentine's day. i had the deed well planned weeks ahead that i already know where to buy the flowers days before feb 14; that i already know how to cope up with the class that i am going to miss that day; that i know what time to go there, and where to go. for a while i found myself ashamed of the same things most of the people did that day. the trip at the local flower shop was one of the most embarassing moments in my life. i had to ask myself time and again how to go to cabanatuan without being noticd that i have a big boquet of flowres in my hands.

but as i was watcing the flowers that i picked got arranged in the way i know daisy would like, i slowly learned to understand why people are suckers for love and why people are extra suckers every feb 14. when i boarded the bus to cabanatuan i found myself thrilled with the idea that i will surprise daisy in her workplace with the flowers at hand. slowly i learned how to enjoy it. for a while i felt ashamed of myself to have been so timid in celebrating valentine's day. the hell i care with what others will say anyway?

i am so happy with so many things i cannot divulge. perhaps i will keep the remainder of the day for myself and cherish it as it has shown me a life i would definitely would like to have someday.

You're looking kinda lonely girl
Would you like someone new to talk to
Ah-yeh, alright
I'm feeling kinda lonely too
If you don't mind can I sit down here beside you
Ah-yeah, alright
If I seem to come on too strong
I hope that you will understand
I say these things 'cause I'd like to knowIf you're as lonely as I am
and if you mind
Sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night
We could bring in the morning girl
If you want to go that far
And if tomorrow find us together
Right here the way we are would you mind
Sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night
Would you like to dance with me and hold me
You know I want to be holding you
Ah-yeah, alright
'Cause I like feeling like I do
And I see in your eyes that you're liking it too
Ah yeah, alright
Like to get to know you better
Is there a place where we can go
Where we can be alone together
And turn the lights down low
And start sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night together
Oh-yeah, sharing the night

this i think is the most tiresome presswork we have ever had. i seemed like writing a twelve paged news article about controversies regarding the student council election. if there is one thing i love in san beda, that would be the brotherhood, the sense of community in the campus. we all treat each other equal and there is no one honking horns about them being the primus inter pares. but what i hate in san beda is that, that brotherhood sometimes, is easily broken by political ambitions.

we are under fire again. ther are people that we cannot really please. there is a price in telling the truth indeed. i hope this time, libel would not be it. but if those people want a fight, i will give thema good a one. we still have two more issues to go after the election issue. goddam it i cant wait to finish my term
